Aqua-Soft ForumsNew Spotlight clone
geocities is retarted, I put the download link on the first page, when I click on it it says the page isn't available. Then when I put the cursor in the addressbar where the link is and press enter, it downloads
I had to kinda figure it out myself, I just added the filename to the end of the web address
alright i'm doing the yousendit thing right now, that seems a little easier
ok, go to the first post and click on it, something will happen
"Out of memory trying to copy c:/windows/system32/msvcrt.dll"
does it give you the option to ignore the error, if it does click ignore because you should already have that file on your system
I pressed "ignore" let's see how it goes.
Nice! I'm installing Desktop Search now.
indexing...
mm, I can host it man, send it to Ayrapetov@gmail.com
edit: actually, I just read the readme, it's going to piss off Apple?
Doesn't work... 
I try to make it work from build 3 but always i have the same result.
I check the registy and everything is in place(my code e.t.c).
Also I attach my install.log if that helps. :slant:
I hope that you will found a way to fix it.good luck. 
Go to the first post, I just released a new test build
NOTE: You will have to set up your preferences again, it is done differently this time. Pretty much you will be doing a desktop search in internet explorer. Then you will copy and paste the entire first part of the link before your search criteria into a box on the preferences dialog, as well as the rest of the link after the search criteria. An easy way is to search for all caps : XXXXXX, then select around it. (there are full instructions in the prefs dialog_
Well, it's been 40 minutes so I guess everyone is having success? :confused:
nope, not working for me. got out of error problem myself :-/
I attached my log for you
were you able to click ignore on the errors?
you might want to go into regedit and delete the folder containing the old settings
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareSpotlight
Delete the spotlight folder and run the new spotlight.exe
no, that's what I tried to do, it allowed me to hit ignore, but didn't continue. I eventually got an out of memory error, as you can see by the log. I don't actually have the application at all, it did not install
EDIT: I don't have a reg entry for Spotlight at all, just a log and ST6UNST.000 file (but what is there to uninstall as thats it! lol)
I've attached 3 screens of the install process for you tom. I'm sorry this is the b est I can do as I have to go to bed. work in the morning!
first screen I hit ignore to, 2nd i hit yes to, 3rd I hit okay
good luck and thank you still!
3_screens_for_tom...first hit ignore, 2nd hit yet, 3rd hit okay.zip
I have to go to bed too
well the app is running for me, but i cant figure out the prefs. i did the google desktop search, and copyed like u said, and its still not working.
In the latest build it looks like spotlight.exe gets dropped in WindowsSystem32 instead of the selected path. Just an FYI after looking at the uninstall log.
However I am at the same point as most others it seems, that is I can launch the app and do a search but get no results, just the 3 links for Show All, Top Hit and Spotlight Preferences.

i was able to install the app, run the app, and set the prefs. but attempting a search did not generate any results and "show all" does nothing.
This sounds great, but aren't you the guy who made that DeskDisk app that was a virus?
no results
Test build 6 and nothing.
before i install it.I unistall the old and delete the spotlight from registry.
when i install it he say that my "msinet.dll" is newest and the "msvcrt.dll" was in use.
also now (with build 6) there isn't a empty space between the "Top Hit" and "Spotlight Preferences..."(check my previous post to see what i mean.At the screenshot i have select the empty space).
Sorry for my bad English.I hope i help.
